Elvis Costello - I Lost You lyrics
Your rating:
I Lost You I Lost You You slipped from your costume Like an actress in this tragedy You're just an apparition in a haunting mystery I fear that you've passed over me... And there's nothing I can do because I Lost You Just like a rich man who is careless of his change I took you for granted And then you went to strangers From deep within my heart I feel a distant fading pulse A poor woman looking for last coin in her purse I Lost You I Lost You You slipped from your costume Like an actress in this tragedy You're just an apparition in a haunting mystery I fear that you've passed over me... And there's nothing I can do because I Lost You Just like a counterfeit you pass from palm to palm I chased the one I surely loved to someone else's arms I mislaid my senses, now that's easy to say A fool who took his pleasure but then threw his love away I Lost You I Lost You You slipped from your costume Like an actress in this tragedy You're just an apparition in a haunting mystery I fear that you've passed over me... And there's nothing I can do because I Lost You
